business and investment companies in new york city，was telling a friend about her trip to the us.“i studied english before i left home.but i still was not sure that people were speaking english.”her problem is easy to understand.americans in business are like people who are in business anywhere.they have a language of their own.some of the words and expressions deal with the special areas of their work.other expressions are borrowed from different kinds of work such as the theater and movie industry.one such saying is “get your act together”when things go wrong in a business，an employer may get angry.he may shout，“stop making mistakes.get your act together.”or，if the employer is calmer，he may say，“let us get our act together.”either way，the meaning is the same.getting your act together is getting organized.in business，it usually means to develop a calm and orderly plan of an action.it is difficult to tell exactly where the saying began.perhaps one of the actors was nervous and made a lot of mistakes.the director may have said，“calm down，now.get your act together.”word expert james rogers says the expression was common by the late 1970s.he says the manchester guardian used it in 1978.the newspaper said a reform policy required that the british government get its act together.now，this expression is heard often when officials of a company meet.one company even calls its yearly report，“getting our act together”56paragraph 1 is written mainly to _.atell us the japanese womans english is poorblead to the subject of the whole passagectell us it is important to grasp spoken englishdtell us traveling in the us.is very difficult57the reason why the woman was not sure that people were speaking english was that _.athey spoke too fast to followbthey didnt want the woman to learn their experiencecthey had some special words and expressions of their own in their fielddthey were from the theater and movie industry58the saying “get your act together” in paragraph 3 means “_”adont do that again byou are dismissedccalm down dget organized59the best title for the passage is _.adifferent countries，different languagesbthe experience in the us.cthe expression and its story：get your act togetherdhow to learn english wellbhow much to tipyoure out to dinner.the food is delicious and the service is fine.you decide to leave a big fat tip.why? the answer may not be as simple as you think.tipping, psychologists have found, is not just about service.instead, studies have shown that tipping can be affected by psychological reactions to a series of different factors from the waiters choice of words, to how they carry themselves while taking orders, to the bills total.even how much waiters remind customers of themselves can determine how much change they pocket by the end of the night.“studies before have shown that mimicry (模仿) brings into positive feelings for the mimicker，” wrote rick van baaren, a social psychology professor.“these studies show that people who are being mimicked become more generous toward the person who mimics them.” so rick van baaren divided 59 waiters into two groups.he requested that half serve with a phrase such as, “coming up！” those in the other half were instructed to repeat the orders and preferences back to the customers.rick van baaren then compared their takehome.the results were clear it pays to mimic your customer.the copycat(模仿者) waiters earned almost double the amount of tips to the other group.leonard green and joel myerson, psychologists at washington university in st.louis, found the generosity of a tipper may be limited by his bill.after research on the 1,000 tips left for waiters, cabdrivers, hair stylists, they found tip percentages in these three areas dropped as customers bills went up.in fact, tip percentages appear to plateau (达到稳定水平) when bills topped $100 and a bill for $200 made the worker gain no bigger percentage tip than a bill for $100.“thats also a point of tipping，” green says.“you have to give a little extra to the cab driver for being there to pick you up and something to the waiter for being there to serve you.if they werent there, youd never get any service.so part of the idea of a tip is for just being there.”60apart from service, how many other factors affecting the customers tipping are mentioned in the passage?a1. b2. c3. d4.61these studies show that _.atipping can be affected by physical reactions to many different waiters factorsbpeople who are being mimicked usually tip less to the person who mimics them cthe mimic waiters can get almost twice as much money as the other groupdmimicry makes the mimicker feel bad62according to the passage, which of the following will be likely to show the right change of the tip percentages?63we know from the passage that the writer seems to _.aobject to mr.greens idea about tippingbthink part of mr.greens explanation is reasonablecgive his generous tip to waiters very oftendsupport the opinions of mr.green and rick van baaren about tippingc.you know australia is a big country, but you may not know how easy it is to get around.the untouched beaches that go for miles and deserts that touch the

the highest percentage of women working outside the home.such statistics are often evidence of a miserable，chaotic(混乱的) society，with loads of children，broken homes and absent mothers.but iceland is the exception its citizens are the happiest in the world.perhaps the countrys geographic location contributes to icelanders happiness.located in the middle of the north atlantic，with greenland as its nearest neighbor，iceland is free from the taboos(禁忌) that cause so much trouble elsewhere.for instance，people who divorce are not looked down upon by the society.icelanders are offsprings (后代)of the vikings，a north european people who invaded european coasts from the 8th through the 10th century.this tradition of getting out into the world lives on in modern iceland.practically all icelanders have studied or worked abroad，and most speak english.perhaps as a result，icelands economic policies_blend the best of those from europe with the us to create its own welfare system.“many of us have
